The company that came to be known as Alfa Romeo was originally founded as "Darracq Italiana" in 1907 by Cavaliere Ugo Stella, an aristocrat from Milan, in partnership with the French automobile firm of Alexandre Darracq.
ALFA also ventured into motor racing for the first time, drivers Franchini and Ronzoni competing in the 1911 Targa Florio with two 24 HP models.
Alfa Romeo is sometimes worshipped by its owners, and many models have become cultural symbols [14].
The Alfa Corse team raced sportscars with much success in those early years with drivers such as Giuseppe Campari, Antonio Ascari, Ugo Sivocco (who was also chief of the test department) and Enzo Ferrari.
The Alfa 158s spent the final years of the war hidden in the village of Melzo to the east of Milan and were soon in action again once the fighting was over.
The Alfa Romeo factory team returned to action in 1950 with cars for Juan-Manuel Fangio, Farina and Luigi Fagioli and the team scored a clean sweep of the Grands Prix that year with Farina becoming the first World Champion.
